At a time when the Devil was still feared, cursed, and buried beneath dogma… some dared to write him differently. They didn’t follow fear — they followed fire.

📖 From the shadows of religion and repression, poets and thinkers rose. Milton, Shelley, Blake, Baudelaire, Carducci... Each in their own tongue, they whispered a new truth: Satan is not always the enemy. Sometimes, he is the rebel, the thinker, the wounded light.

In a world that refused to see beyond the horns, these writers saw a mirror.

LORD BYRON

George Gordon Byron, 6th Baron Byron, FRS was a British poet and peer. He is one of the major figures of the Romantic movement, and is regarded as being among the greatest of British poets.

“She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that's best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes...” ― Lord Byron

Happy 235th Birthday to Lord Byron!

Here's my illustrated ode to the poet.

Yolu olmayan ormanlarda mutluluk vardır, Yalnız yürünen deniz kıyısında sevinç. Topluluklar vardır kimsenin zorla girmediği derin denizlerde ve sesinde de müzik. İnsanı daha az seviyorum diyemem ama doğayı daha fazla… ( Lord Byron )
